This series originated from my own nights of wandering in winter snow. Visually, the series adapts iconography from German Romanticism and Italian Renaissance portraiture, and conveys it with an artificial light situation common in contemporary theater and cinema. Beyond the umbrella of nocturne, there was no preconception to be illustrated, no didactic intent intended. The stories are built out of my painting process, a curiosity of juxtaposing images and then reading the outcome. This reflects my belief that art is richer when discovered rather than imposed. I've carried a tripod in the snow, photographed and sketched; yet, memory is my primary aid. I open my eyes wide at night and try to retain the experience. In the studio, these elements are pieced together. Each painting begins with a vague mood that is brought forth by color. As forms begin to emerge and take shape, I try to name and articulate the image.
